“Why Do We Resist the Positive? Shifting Your Perspective”
When we constantly seek to criticize and oppose anyone or anything that holds different views from ours, could it be that our perspective needs a recharge? Consider the tale of two individuals who observed the same glass of water but interpreted it differently: one saw it as half empty, while the other saw it as half full. Differing opinions can be a chance for growth rather than conflict.
Past disappointment can make us focus on the negative, and keep us from recognizing the positive in everyday life. Our perceptions shape our reactions to the world and to people. If we habitually adopt an adversarial stance towards life’s experiences, it’s worth reflecting on why.
Don’t let negativity become a habit. Despite the challenges in life, goodness surrounds us; what prevents you from acknowledging it? Shifting your mindset can help you reframe situations and lead to a more fulfilling life.
Let’s start TODAY, one step at a time!
